ISSUE-197: Accept attribute should allow file extensions in addition to the current allowed values
accept-file-ext
Accept attribute should allow file extensions in addition to the current allowed values
- State:
- CLOSED
- Product:
- HTML 5 spec
- Raised by:
- Julian Reschke
- Opened on:
- 2012-01-14
- Description:
- (raised on behalf of sharco@microsoft.com):
The spec states: “The accept attribute may be specified to provide
user agents with a hint of what file types will be accepted.†The options
currently allowed in the accept attribute are mime types and the special tokens
“audio/*â€, “image/*â€, “video/*â€. Allowing file extensions to be a token would
help many developers and fits in exactly with the purpose of the accept
attribute.
